I use the grinder in making steel sculptures. It is the 3rd Metabo grinder I have purchased. Really like that it is a variable speed. it does the job of cleaning the welds. Would like it to be a little shorter in length, with the same power.

It's a big step up from my makita. It would be nice to have a handle like RIDGIT but I'll forgive it for smooth start and adjastable speed and keyless blade change is jast a cherry on a pie! I planned to give it 4.5 stars for the lack of storage case. its in a temporary small case and I already pinched this very nice and soft cord. If I only had $ 70 i'd get MAKITA again but I happend to have [$]!

Generally a good tool that has not been improved since originally released. The variable speed controller is a weak link that in my experience is often the first part to fail. I have burned through at least a dozen of these and similar competitor grinders though it is generally a ruggedly built tool.

The on/off switch is difficult to use, and subject to wear. It should be replaced with a deadman type for ease of use and for safety. It is possible to unplug the grinder with the switch left in the on position, which leads to nasty surprises when replugged.
